This was my first time ever going into the store and ordering from their website. Like everyone says, it's a mix of Hot Topic but with less bands and more anime and Disney in my opinion. And I'm all for it! Bonus for them supporting a cause too! I made a big purchase on their website since everything I ordered was not available in stores except one item. I went there to pick it up. They had a waiting line and monitored how many was going in. All the staff there are super friendly! They had my pick up order ready to go. I'm satisfied with their quality. But I'm more impressed with their customer service! One of my items was a gift but arrived damaged. I emailed them about it and within a COUPLE OF HOURS, they responded back to me and solved it right away! No questions asked. I have never had that happen EVER. And during Christmas week?! Amazing. I would always get some automated lame response and it would take days and a lot of back and forth. They offered to send out a new one right away, no fee or shipping charge. And another email when the replacement package was sent out, along with tracking! This is how you get loyal customers. Very pleased with this company. You can't even feel bad about the prices because it's supporting a great cause too. You will also find more sales on their website than in store. read more

Such a cool place with tons of nerdy figurines and gifts. If I had to compare this place to something, it is basically a less intense version of Hot Topic and a smaller version of F.Y.E, without the movies and CDs. They have clothes, Pops, backpacks, and mugs. Honestly, this store has tons of unusable things, but mostly decor and collectibles. The store is pretty small, but organized, and things aren't just thrown around wherever. For the most part, everything is separated by theme, tv show, or movie. The prices are definitely on the higher side here, but it's for a good cause. According to the website, "With every $10 spent on our pop culture-themed product offering of apparel, accessories, home goods, gift and novelty, and collectibles, BoxLunch will help provide a meal secured by Feeding America® on behalf of local member food banks." More places should be selfless like this and help out those who need it. I will always stand by helpful businesses like BoxLunch. read more

10/10 great service from eyeesha she was super helpful she answered all my questions she showed me around and showed me what I was looking for I will definitely be returning here and I recommend this store to everyone read more

I love BoxLunch! It's basically Hot Topic with with a small twist, in that every $10 dollars spent secures a meal at a food pantry through their partnership with Feeding America. A GREAT twist, if you ask me! It's because of that that I try not to complain that the prices you may find at BoxLunch can be a bit high. That being said, much like their sister store Hot Topic, you can usually find some nicely priced sale items. BoxLunch sells so many things that will delight your inner fan girl (or fan boy). You'll find Funko Pops, pop culture clothing, geeky accessories, super cute purses, home goods themed around anime, disney, popular movies/tv shows and more! Every time I visit, I see something new! The staff at this BoxLunch is great. They're so friendly and seem to enjoy what they do. Last time I was in, one noticed what I was buying and filled me in on a new product they'd just received that I would probably like. (She was right!) I appreciate the attention they give to their customers! They're also usually good about reminding you about your loyal rewards! BoxLunch is worth stopping into next time you're at Woodfield! read more

Boxlunch is always a fun trip. The prices are a bit high for what they are selling, but that can be said about a lot of places. The employees are always so inviting, friendly, and helpful. They are really great about updating their instagram, to show what is in-stock, and what popular items have already been sold out. This way, if you're going for that specific item, you don't have to make the trip out if it's already sold out. Just like hot topic though, their stores need more space or need to be renting a bigger space in the mall. Both HT and Boxlunch always feel so cramped, and when the mall is busy, I just avoid going in, squishing by other customers. read more

Saw this store being talked about on various sites so I decided to give it a visit and let me start by saying it does not disappoint. If you are interested in good quality, nice pop culture merchandise for movies, tv and games this is a store for you. The selection of things was incredible and the staff I talked to were extremely helpful and polite. I will definitely be returning! Thank you boxlunch! read more

BoxLunch - Overwatch Section! - Gift Shops Near Me - Schaumburg, Illinois

I love this place! Perfect for toy collectors as myself. Tons of Funko pops and different blind box/bag figures. It's pretty much Hot Topic without the super dark lighting and "scary" looking. Really bright and organized on the inside. They sell lots of pop culture items and home goods, gifts, graphic tees, etc. The manager Angelina is really nice. What's awesome is that every $10 you spend, you're helping by donating a meal to someone in need through Feeding America. Makes me feel better for spending lots of money there. Lol. Quit. read more

BoxLunch - Gift Shops Near Me - Schaumburg, Illinois

A great geeky gift shop! The closest thing I can compare to is Hot Topic minus the goth stuff; there is a great array of gifts, clothes and housewares for your favorite geek: comic characters, Star Wars, video game themed, Studio Ghibli, and assorted other pop culture. The store's name seems weird until you find out that BoxLunch puts a portion of their profits toward meals for people in need; they are coupled with Feeding America (a Chicago charity) to provide this service. This may make you feel a little better about paying $30 for a t-shirt... Overall, this is a unique shop with a bonus mission. Great for all your geektastic shopping needs! read more

Great pop selection, very nice staff. I love that they post the next days pop additions on Instagram instead of just showing up with crossed fingers. read more

The window display drew us inside and then we were hooked. Cool mix of retro t-shirts, buttons, mugs, and gaming-inspired backpacks, luggage, throws, and more. Star Wars, Disney lounge, Atari, comics, and television and movie merch. Super friendly service. Made a few purchases, will return next time we're in town! read more

BoxLunch - July 2016 - Gift Shops Near Me - Schaumburg, Illinois

To be honest, I only started coming here because it is way less intense than its emo brother, Hot Topic. I can actually buy cute pop culture apparel and figures without heavy metal singers screaming into my ears and not being able to see two feet in front of me with HT's lack of lighting. They have really cute clothes and their Funko Pop selection is great! Some of the items are a little pricey, but for every $10 spent the company donates lunches to those in need. Overall, I recommend stopping by if you are at Woodfield Mall. read more

So this is the first time coming in here and I was in heaven! I've heard of boxlunch before but never thought id get the opportunity to visit one. And it was better than I expected. They have to much like Disney and marvel and wonder woman, etc. They had a funko pop wall in the back. What I liked about this place as well is that if you were looking for something specific it was in one specific area. Like Disney was just in the front to the left and harry potter in front just to the right, etc. Nothing was scattered and you didn't really have to look in different places which was nice. Now some of the stuff can be a bit expensive but I think if you have the money its worth it. They have such cute bags and shirts and collectibles. I even got a rocket necklace from toy story. I think this place caters to a lot of people and have such wonderful stuff. Just sucks that there isn't one closer to where I live lol. But would def always go to this store if I could. read more

This is my favorite store in Woodfield, I always make sure to stop here every time I visit the mall. They have such a huge variety of everything you could think of including great apparel, collectibles and an incredible Funko Pop collection. The staff and management are always extremely helpful and friendly. read more

WOAH is this store overpriced. This store is literally an overpriced Hot Topic. Their stuff isn't even good quality for what they charge. Almost $80 for a hoodie with a crappy iron on? Awful. Their Sailor Moon stuff is ridiculously overpriced as well. You can get the same stuff from the Sailor Moon store for half the price. Save your money and don't go to this overpriced store. read more
